Description: Williamsburg, Va., settled over 300 years ago, restored to XVII century glory, and brought to life in this film by actors wearing authentic costumes of that early day. The Capitol, Council Chamber with coat of Arms of Queen Anne, the church, the home—all restored. The oldest collegiate structure in America. And the governor's palace, so ornate that the early colonists protested its extravagance
